MH943TWS Megahome Water Distiller, Glass Collection
Key Features
- 1 Year Warranty
- BEST QUALITY: Full 304 stainless steel boil chamber, dome, and cooling coils. Outer shell of distiller body is also metal unlike many cheaper units made with plastic.
- PUREST WATER: Distills 1 gallon per 5.5 hours. Distills at the proper speed, removing unwanted toxins and contaminates. BPA-FREE parts. Water only touches stainless steel and glass.
- GLASS COLLECTION: As the distiller produces pure steam distilled water, the water drips into a porcelain lined nozzle and then into your glass collector. The last thing you would want is to buy a distiller that purifies the water and at the same time contaminates it with cheap plastic parts. The Megahome distiller keeps your water pure and clean.
- UL LISTED / APPROVED: UL (Underwrites Laboratory) is a trusted independent global safety science company that thoroughly tests products to determine if they comply with important safety standards. Megahome distillers are the only UL approved water distillers available. If you would not by an oven or coffee maker without UL listing, would you buy a water distiller that is not UL listed?

Customer Reviews Of The Distillers | Yes, hundreds! You can find reviews of our distillers on steamdistiller.com, Amazon.com, Youtube and other websites. It is the highest rated and most loved countertop distiller on the internet. | Yes, some reviews, but far less reviews can be found. Waterwise is not as highly rated where reviews are found. | Reviews can be found on Amazon. Most reviews are very short-term because units don't last. In addition new listings are made regularly to avoid negative reviews. |
What protects the units from over heating? | Megahome distillers which are UL approved are required to have a thermal switch and a thermal fuse. A circuit breaker does not protect in anyway against overheating and would be unsafe to use in a heating appliance. Using a thermal switch and thermal fuse protects the appliance and you from overheating or power surges. | Unknown | The cheap chinese distillers do now contain a fuse to protect your home and distiller from overheating and potentially burning up. This is why they are not UL approved and are potentially hazardous. |
Which unit should I buy? | Buy the Megahome distiller if safety, great price, high quality, available parts and service are important to you. Our reviews and long track history tell the truth. Only Megahome units meet all the above criteria. | Buy the Waterwise if the brand name is the only thing important to you. | Buy the cheap chinese distillers if price is everything, you are not concerned about the safety of the product. |
Due to recent outbreaks of blue-green algae especially in Lake Eerie, we have recently been asked:
"Will your water distiller remove cyanobacteria or microcystins from a contaminated water source?"
Yes. Microcystins are a genus of Cyanobacteria are cyclic heptapeptides (toxic peptides with seven amino acids and are therefore a solid or particulate that is removed in the distillation process. Boiling is not effective against Microcystins because they are resistant to a wide range of temperatures.
Boiling the water concentrates the toxin because of the resulting loss of steam in the boiling process.
Distillation on the other hand is the process of boiling water and capturing the resulting steam that rises. The steam leaves behind the contaminates, including bacteria and resulting chemicals, such as Microcystins.
We are confident that you will be very satisfied with your investment in one of our water distillers. Remember you don't have to take our word for it, just look at the reviews from our customers.
